"The hotel clerks were polite and kind, but there were a lot of young people in and out and hanging in the parking lot, many without masks. The security guard and other employees didn't say anything.

Good experience overall.2021-12-09"
"Located in a sketchy part of town. The motel staff was so accommodating and understanding, but the room was awful. It wasn't particularly clean and smelled horrible. It was so bad that we asked for another room, but the 2nd room wasn't much better. The entire place reeked of smoke. The elevator was broken. Breakfast was either a breakfast burrito or a nutri-grain bar.2021-12-06"

On a positive note, the room was clean and the bed was fairly comfortable. There was a lot of traffic noise at night. The staff was respectful. No decent restaurant within walking distance, just fast food.2021-12-04"

"Located in older, downtown area not far from LAX; not the best area, but I felt safe enough - lots of restaurants and grocery stores nearby - good place for the price - I had pets with me, so I was put in a 1st-floor room near the lobby; didn't enjoy hearing people scream at the front desk clerk at 3 AM almost every night - room was fairly clean, but the carpet was so filthy it turned my socks and cats' paws black - had a kitchen with dishes, cookware, and utensils - the window faced a wall - housekeeper made the bed and replaced the towels, but never vacuumed or changed the bedding during my 14-night stay - staff was friendly and always greeted me - had an exercise room - laundry machines always seemed to be in use - small snack shop operated on the honor system - appreciated the free, gated parking.2012-10-01"

The manager didn't call as promised, and when I called him, he was rude to me. We were moved to a downgraded room with peeling wallpaper, stains on the walls and floorboards, and non-working electrical outlets. Don't stay at this hotel.2016-03-15"

HotelGuides made it easy to choose a hotel based on how far we wanted to get that day. Also liked being able to see the interstate interchange on the map to determine how far off the highway each hotel was.
On place pages like this, we order hotels from lowest cost to highest – except we list low-rated hotels at the bottom of the page.
Most of our competitors order these same hotels in other ways that make them more money.
How Do We Define Motel?
To us, motels are smaller lodgings that have rooms you can enter directly from the parking area.
At hotels, on the other hand, you can enter your room only through a hall inside the building.
Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
